कामिक आगम: पूर्व भाग (अष्टाविंशति मूल शैव आगमों का प्रथम एवं सर्वोच्च आगम महाकोश)

All those hasta-dimensions prescribed for the lingas are efficacious in leading to the
final liberation and to the attainment of wordly benefits which follow as the necessary
consequences. These occur only when accurate dimensions are applied to the lingas.

For the svayambhu linga and others(except the manusha linga), the portion which has
gone below into the ground should not be exposed for vision. If the hidden portion of
such lingas is exposed , being in delusion and ignorance, such exposure will inflict
all kinds of troubles and distress upon those who exposed and upon the surroundings.
नाहतारो तथा स्थूलदेशे संगृह्य कल्पयेत्।

ma'nave lin'gama'nam tu s'irima'nam vinodayam// 43
The exact dimensions for the circumference and length for such lingas should be
derived from getting the dimensions of their visible gross portion. The height of
the manusha linga should be determined, leaving out the measure of its head(top
portion).
